San Diego New Music launches a season entitled Surreality. The season kicks off with a concert: Déjà Vu, curated by trombonist and San Diego New Music Executive Director, Eric Starr.
Joined by acclaimed pianist Sonya Schumann and a power-house brass ensemble, Starr presents a thought-provoking program that pits musical expectations against reality. “
Déjà Vu approaches listeners from an altered state of mind. They may find themselves wondering - What am I hearing? Have I heard this piece before? Is that a normal thing to do with a musical instrument? What are these unknown sounds?”, says Eric Starr.
Date | Wednesday, November 3 at 7:30 p.m.
Location | The Athenaeum Music & Arts Library

Athenaeum Music & Arts Library
The Athenaeum Music & Arts Library, located in the heart of La Jolla, Calif., in San Diego County, is one of only 16 nonprofit membership libraries in the United States. This rare cultural institution, an important one to the greater San Diego area, offers a depth and accessibility of resources and programs found nowhere else in the region. The library, devoted exclusively to music and art, has an outstanding and ever-expanding collection of books, periodicals, reference material, compact discs, videocassettes, DVDs, sheet music and librettos, as well as one of the most significant collections of artists' books in Southern California. The library is open to the public five days a week and members can check out materials for a modest annual fee. The Athenaeum also presents an eclectic, year-round schedule of art exhibitions, concerts (classical, jazz and new music), lectures, studio art classes through its School of the Arts, tours and special events.
